Clearly everyone can see that eventual natural immunity is highly valuable. But none of us want to be the guy who gets sick and dies for humanity. Especially when the current state of humanity is trash. Linkola himself takes some meds to stay alive now and feels bad about it.

We should control technology absolutely and enforce our superiority through any means necessary. We should engage in minimalist genetic editing to ensure our people have the upmost potential for success. We should use our superiority to reestablish symbiosis with nature
-
Technologies like Gene editing will have unforseen negative consequences like they always do. As the tech gets more godlike it gets more serious. A mistake here could be world shattering.

We've figured out everything else, I'm confident with the correct motivation we can also go here safely. This is a zero sum game, there's no backing out now. We need to play to win so we can call the shots
-
We have absolutely not figured everything else out. There are several looming human generated biological consequences of immense magnitude that have the potential for extreme chaos and death. Were this not the case I night agree with you.
-
Didn't this happen because we let foreign doctors use our tech? Also, what's plan B? You assume this isn't a zero sum game where we are undoubtedly the best candidates to win. Should we opt out do you think the Indians or Chinese will do better?
-
This happens because these types of consequences are built into the nature of Humanity under technocapital, it's intensified at a rate our evolution couldn't match. Better people arguably get less of this.
-
I've approached this problem with likely the same disgust as you, however I see no way to detach while other lesser Nations continue.. We should strive to achieve absolute technological dominance and then subject others to it while respecting our environment

It's a tall order

Most of the modern diseas are directly linked to our modern lifestyle also human are becoming weak and dependant on antibiotics we are literally destroying our immune system.

Also using technological means like antibiotics encourages the pathogens to evolve too, otherwise they would usually just die with the host

Yes we're currently cultivating apocalypse bugs in feedlots.

There's a balanced eugenic pro-technology option, where high IQ people make more money and so can afford expensive treatment for certain diseases It's not perfect but pretending we aren't under severe dysgenic pressure is going to lead to disaster
-
Yeah, in general the technosphere exists in large part to protect us from natural selection pressures/natural consequences which is highly dysgenic. You could always treat the people but not allow them to reproduce which is a middle ground. Eugenics is nice and good.

Broke: depending on technology to be perpetually one step ahead Woke: allowing nature to take it's course in the interests of evolutionary pressure Bespoke: intentionally infecting everyone in the world with the worst diseases imaginable to breed hyper-immune supermen
